Energy balance.
RESEARCH PROJECTS
Design of a Gas Pipeline — Designed a pipeline for a particular route and given set of
conditions using Weymouth equation; Compressor stations were designed to suit
requirements and economic analysis performed (August 2004-December 2004).
Process Safety Valves (PSV) — A step by step method has been developed to size the
PRVs; various pressure scenarios have been discussed. Reviewed the PI&Ds and PFD,
analyzing the worst case over pressure scenario. Calculations have been done for all
overpressure scenarios and sizing of PRV has been done considering the worst case
(January 2005-April 2005).
Design of Distillation Column using HYSYS — Distillation Column was modeled in HYSYS
using the Wilson Fluid package. The McCabe Thiele result and the HYSYS result were
compared. The results showed HYSYS is a good modeling tool for the design of separation
processes, such as distillation columns (January 2006-May 2006).
EDUCATION AND PROFESSIONAL BACKGROUND
- Master of Science in Chemical Engineering, Texas A&M University (May 2006).
- Bachelor of Science in Chemical Engineering, Padmasri Dr.B.V.Raju Institute of
Technology, India (April 2004).
